Not everyone has the knowledge or aptitude or tools or facilities. Those $50 bushings could easily cost near $200 for someone to have put in their car.

While it's a minor thing to pick on we're definitely not describing a true spec class especially with what people have claimed to know that you can run it in 'partial' prep which means no off the showroom floor model should have an advantage over full prep which means comparing the tS with 7.5" and the '17+ suspension and +5hp and gearing and the TRD equipped cars etc.

A true spec class would be:
Springs and dampers from base '13-'16 FR-S (P/N's xxxx)
Factory crash bolts
All else stock

And then you'll have people checking alignment before buying cars to run the class for max negative up front and even camber in the back and dyno-ing multiple sets of dampers and on and on if the rewards are there.
